Description

It's time to dive into U2's much beloved, and also much maligned 9th studio album, Pop. It's a polarizing work among fans and critics and God knows the band's spent the last 25 years trying to distance themselves from it. But when you consider what it was intended to be and what they delivered, it is a record that could have been so much more. But the question is why? Was it really because they let Paul McGuiness book the tour too soon and they ran out of time to properly finish it? Was it not having Eno and or Lanois on board?  Was it having too many producers? Or did they just not have the big songs as Bono has conceded? Tune in and find out.
